I am trying to locate an ignition live on a 2018 current Ford Fiesta, Ford seems to have completely changed the fuse box on the new fiesta with micro fuses etc and none of which are an ignition live, this is for a dash cam, I don’t really want to do a wire tap, there must be a fused ignition live inside the car somewhere, why have ford made this so dam difficult, I have been and tested all the fused in the inside fuse box with a test meter. Has anyone been able to locate one?

Also if I remember right the picture of the fuse box in the manual is the opposite way round to the way you look at it in the car.
